Today we welcomed pupils from Coety Primary School, to learn about survival skills for their Misty Mountain topic. We even ordered the mist! 😉
60 excited Year 4 pupils joined us in our beautiful, private woodland in Bridgend.
Things to do near our Bridgend Basecamp
Are you dropping someone off for their Bushcraft Adventure and looking for something to do before you collect them? Here’s a couple of our suggestions of things to do nearby.
Outdoor learning for Native Americans topic
Pupils from Maes Yr Haul Primary School spent the day with us learning how to be in tune with the natural environment as part of their Native Americans topic… they looked up, down and around to explore their surroundings to see what they could see, smell and hear and learnt about natural medicines. They learnt how to build shelters using only the natural resources around them – and got inside to test they were waterproof, and lit fires using lots of different methods.
Well done everyone! 🔥 👍
Outdoor learning and tool use
Some people shy away from allowing young people, especially those considered to have additional learning needs or challenging behaviour, from using sharp tools.
During our longer term outdoor learning sessions, we build trust and respect, and pupils have the opportunity to use knives, saws, and today the shave horse to make feather sticks. It provides an opportunity for pupils to learn about and manage risk and develop important life skills.
We find these sessions hugely rewarding seeing pupils grow in confidence and develop their skills and we’ve had great feedback about them. If you’re interested in finding out more for your pupils, drop us a line today…
Two axes, different targets. Challenge accepted… Boom! 😉
